Chapter 84: Everyone in Duke Zhou’s mansion will not be spared!(1/2)

 "Boom!!"

There was a sound of thunder, and Qiu Shenji made a brilliant appearance.

He strode in and kicked Chu Da, who was at the front and shouting the loudest.

Chu Da was kicked to the ground and rolled around in the rain several times. When he got up and was about to scold him, he was met with a pair of eyes burning with raging anger.

Seeing this fierce look, Chu Da's arrogance suddenly went out, and he was so frightened that he trembled all over.

Because he has no doubt that if he dares to resist again, the other party will really have the courage to kill him on the spot!

This ferocity and lack of scruple that comes from his bones is definitely not a disguise.

really.

After all, Li Yan respected his identity, and the eunuchs in the palace were watching, so he did not fully express the hatred in his heart.

Qiu Shenji, on the other hand, had accumulated endless anger. Seeing that Chu Da was intimidated, he immediately looked at the next one and rushed forward to fight.

For a moment, ghosts cried and wolves howled.

Wang Xiaojie and others looked with admiration at this hero who was not afraid of power. He was like a tiger among the sheep, and severely suppressed the arrogance of the evil slaves in the Duke's mansion.

"Whoosh! Whoosh!"

After Qiu Shenji had tidied up the slaves and vented his anger, he walked towards Li Yan.

"Brother Qiu!"

Li Yan opened his arms, but he really wanted to see Qiu Shenji.

At this time, he needs such talents.

The two hugged fiercely.

"Mukuro, thanks to you! Thanks to you!"

Qiu Shenji's eyes turned red and he almost cried on the spot.

In fact, he secretly cried many times in Wannian County Prison.

On the day Xie Brown became an official, he was thrown into prison.

No one else has such an experience...

What's even more frightening is that Li Yan escorted him all the way to the Wannian County Government Office where he was located, and fought for it despite the pressure from the Prime Minister of Dali Temple.

That's probably not the end.

In Wannian County Prison, no one tortured him, they just locked him up.

If he transferred to Dali Temple where Wu Min's party members were numerous, it would be over.

Fortunately, this ordeal did not last for a few days, and the jailer's attitude changed significantly.

The palace of Zhou Guogong is haunted, which is a turning point.

After such a big incident happened, no one took care of Qiu Shenji's small case.

Qiu Ying took action in time and asked Dou County Magistrate of Wannian County to finally hear the case clearly. He concluded that the evil slave of the Duke of Zhou had provoked the provocation first, and Qiu Shenji beat him to death. He was completely innocent and released on the spot.

Qiu Shenji didn't even return home. When he heard that Li Yan was in Duke Zhou's mansion, he rushed over as soon as possible.

At this time, he came to the silent slaves and said word by word: "Thanks to Dou Ming's uprightness and Mr. Lu's impartial enforcement of the law, I can see the sky. You bunch of dog slaves, Wannian County will punish you well."

of!"

Chu Da was still unwilling to give up: "The Duke of Zhou's mansion will not be under the control of Chang'an County!"

Qiu Shenji laughed: "But the case you committed is gone! You are finished! It is finished!!"

The square Chang'an City is divided into two parts with Zhuque Street.

What happens in more than fifty cities and towns on the right is under the management of Wannian County.

What happens in more than fifty cities on the left is under the management of Chang'an County.

Among the counties in the world, only Wannian County, Chang'an County, Henan County, Luoyang County, Taiyuan County, Jinyang County, and Fengxian County (Pucheng, Shaanxi) have county magistrates of the fifth rank.

There are even as many as six county captains in Wannian County and Chang'an County, who are divided into Hu Cao, Fa Cao, Gong Cao, Cang Cao, Bing Cao and Shi Cao.

Guzang County in Liangzhou is also a superior county. It only has Hucao and Facao, which shows the status of the two counties in Chang'an.

Magistrate Dou of Wannian County was not a member of Wu Minzhi's party. His surname obviously came from the Dou family, the backbone of the Guanlong family.

Although the Guanlong political group was not as good as before after the death of Changsun Wuji, a skinny camel is bigger than a horse.

Wu Minzhi's power was ultimately an extension of Empress Wu, and the intertwined high-ranking noble clans could secretly compete with the emperor and empress for power, so they would be afraid of him everywhere?

With supporters behind him, and when he came here, he heard that Wu Minzhi was crazy, Qiu Shenji became even more careless and pointed at Chu Da: "Let me take him down first!"

Chu Da knew that he would definitely die if he continued like this, so he made a last-ditch effort and instigated: "If we don't resist at this time, we will all go to jail. Going to jail will mean death!"

The slaves were in commotion again.

Qiu Shenji rushed towards him fiercely, but the effect was not as good as before.

After all, they are internal guards, not county officials.

What's more, even the Chang'an County government office is still subject to the constraints of the Ministry of Punishment and Dali Temple. Once a case involves a powerful person, it is often dropped in the end.

Therefore, at this moment, Li Yan said leisurely: "If there are any whistleblowers among you, maybe you can be given a lighter sentence, be lenient if you confess, and be stricter if you resist!"

The courtyard was quiet for a moment, and a slightly hesitant voice came out from among the slaves:

"I'm reporting... Chu Da has committed one of the ten heinous crimes... His mother was beaten to death by him. He committed an evil act!"

There is a word called unpardonable evil.

The ten evils here first appeared in the "Qi Lu" during the Northern Dynasties. They were called the Ten Serious Crimes at that time, and officially became the Unforgivable Evils during the Sui and Tang Dynasties.

Those who have committed these serious crimes do not fall within the amnesty scope of the Amnesty.

Rebellion is the first of the ten evils, and what the whistleblower is talking about at this time is the fourth crime, evil rebellion.

Killing grandparents, parents, uncles and other elders to respect relatives.

Chu Da's whole body trembled violently, and he instantly collapsed to the ground. His whole body began to tremble, and a stench quickly spread from his lower body.

Now, I'm really senile.

Li Yan nodded and pointed: "Write down the name of the person who made the report. After being escorted to the county government office, inform Lu Shaofu that the crime can be reduced to one level if appropriate."

The implication of his words is that the crime to be committed should not be too serious. If the crimes have been accumulated to a certain extent, lowering the crime to a lower level is still a death sentence.

But this already gave hope to all the slaves present. The next moment, the noise broke through the rain again and became a mess.

"... He also committed the ten most sinful crimes... The woman who was arrested on the street was beaten to death by him... I want to say it, I want to say it too..."

It became dog eat dog in the field.

It's not just about fighting each other here. After all, there are only thirty or forty people here, and the entire Duke Zhou's mansion has more than three hundred servants.

Are the rest clean?

"Write it down, write it all down!"

Qiu Shenji was so excited that his whole body was shaking.

This is a one-pot rhythm!

From top to bottom, no one can escape!

"I know what the Duke said that night!"

At this moment, a unique voice stopped the noise.

Zhu Wu stood up staggeringly and roared desperately: "Before the Duke fell into coma that night, he called Mrs. Rongguo. He didn't think grandma was loving at all, but...ah!!"

Halfway through his words, Zhu Wu screamed again.

But Li Yan quickly came to him, slapped him away, and sent him flying.

He flew four to five meters away and fell hard to the ground. Zhu Wu fainted completely.

Upon hearing that Mrs. Rongguo was involved, the eunuchs in the palace suddenly changed their expressions. Seeing Li Yan interrupt, they breathed a sigh of relief: "Li Wuwei, how dare this dog slave talk nonsense!"

Li Yan nodded expressionlessly: "Yes, his evil deeds were obviously exposed. He lost his luck and began to bite the Duke. Such evidence cannot be trusted."

Seeing that the other servants had handed over the evidence of their crimes, he said, "Think carefully, what did Duke Zhou say before he went crazy?"

Seeing Zhu Wu's fate, even those who heard Wu Minzhi's wailing that night did not dare to reveal even a single word and shook their heads.

You forced us to confess before, and it took more than three days. Now you want to confess, but you won't let us do it. I have never seen such a difficult Lord!

Li Yan said angrily: "Now that you still dare to hide things and deceive your superiors and subordinates, we can't rule out the possibility that Zhou Guogong was implicated by you. Take them down! Take them all down!"

Amidst the sounds of ghosts crying and wolves howling, the slaves were escorted out of the house by Qiu Shenji, and headed towards the county government with the crimes they confessed.

There were ecstatic cheers outside the house.

Many accusers came to Zhou Guogong's house, and they all came with some belief that they would die.

They were really hateful, but they couldn't believe that the Duke of Zhou, who had done all kinds of evil in the past, would really be punished.
To be continued...
